Derek was a joy to work with from start to finish. He was very communicative and reached out regularly throughout the planning process. He responded quickly to any questions we had and had plenty of vendor recommendations. He guided us through the process of cultivating a ceremony that perfectly reflected us as a couple. We cannot recommend having Derek officiate your wedding enough! He was beyond helpful before and on the wedding day, even going so far as to get us each a drink right after the ceremony! He made sure we were taken care of and worry free on our wedding day. We are so appreciative and grateful to have had Derek on our wedding day!

We hired Rev. Derek Dube sort of last minute for our [COVID] Wedding. Finding an officiant that was just right for US proved to be more difficult than we expected; we both consider ourselves religious, Christian, but are not current members of any one Church. One phone call meeting with Derek and we looked each other in the eyes with undoubted confirmation- he was the one to marry us. It didn't stop there- not only did Derek display the utmost level of professionalism, but was able to customize our Ceremony and his script for it just exactly to US and our beliefs, love, lives and personalities! We are blown away with the attention to detail, attentive care and service that was provided to us by Rev. Derek. Amidst a crazy time for any wedding planning {much less one during a pandemic}, where every last detail came down to the wire, our ceremony planning was a great sigh of relief knowing that Derek had all handled. Gentle reminders when we were distracted with life and planning, and incredible responsiveness when ever we did need something; Derek and WWM check ALL of the boxes. For a seamless and relaxed experience that will portray your love for each other to your guests, this is THE option for wedding officiant! Than you, Derek, and WWM, for creating the perfect, and BEST Day EVER <3 Rob N Jess, 9.6.20

My husband (Matt) and I cannot say enough nice things about Derek! He was so wonderful overall and we would recommend him in a heartbeat. Derek is easy to work with and made our day so special. He is very thoughtful, even to the point of grabbing Matt and I something to drink during our seemingly endless family photos after the ceremony :) He is very genuine, kind, and detail-oriented. Derek kept us in the loop along the way and provided us with lots of great information to help us craft the perfect ceremony and what to expect with marriage licenses, etc. We could not have done it without him and are so happy to have had Derek there! Thank you, Derek, and you won't be sorry you booked him for your big day.

Derek was great at keeping in contact with us throughout the whole process. He sent samples of ceremonies, reminded us of things we needed to do and when (like apply for a marriage license!), and conducted our rehearsal and ceremony with professionalism and the right amount of humor and personality.
